Well, I certainly have been feeling pretty low the past couple of weeks. The scale hasn't been moving and I've beating myself up quite a lot.
Luckily, I got to weigh in at the gym with my PT on Friday. Although I only lost 2lbs in the past 2 weeks I went down 2.8% in my body fat percentage because I lost 8lbs of fat overall!!! How awesome is that?
As a result my faith in myself and what I've been doing has been restored. I'm working out, eating relatively well, and thus I am seeing results. Would it be nice if the scale moved more? YES!!! But I fit into the next size smaller jeans now and my stamina has increased and things are getting better.
My husband keeps reminding me that I've made a commitment to be in this for the long haul and that slow and steady is the way to have a weight loss and life change that I will be able to maintain. I love that I have such a wise and wonderful man to support me throughout this process!
Lastly, my birthday is less than a month away. I asked my family for more PT sessions as a gift. I think that continuing my PT sessions for as long as possible will be very helpful and will keep me on the straight and narrow for as long as possible.
